A half hour of Dave Letterman interviewing school kids about their 4-H projects. Really.

> 12:30

> 13 Exercise in Knowledge

Still airing today as "Brain Game." High school kids quiz show.

> 2:00
>
> 6 Rap-a-Round Six

Current events interview show.

But with a title like that can't you just imagine longtime 6 anchor Howard Caldwell throwing down some def rhymes. ;-)

You are correct! Letterman also hosted a Saturday late night show called
"Freeze Dried Movies." (and, of course, did weekend weather on 13! I saw the
"hail the size of canned hams" recap. My mother was stunned. "THAT'S NOT SOMETHING YOU JOKE ABOUT!")
